Just to keep things on a positive note here, I did lose the most weight because of diet and working my legs a lot. I think that working the largest muscles was what was most helpful to me.
Kinda off subject, but not really....I enjoy doing quite a few leg presses at the gym. I was told that this could make my hips look wider....
I would think that wider would mean bigger and heavier...
Now, I am no expert here about this sort of thing. I only know what I have experienced with trying to lose weight. But, I would think that working out with weights might tend to help a person to gain weight some. Don't you think?... I mean, working out with weights for me is a way to gain muscle mass. I know that there are other exercises that a person could do whereby it wouldn't be so much in doing them to gain muscle mass but to burn off the calories.
Cute name by the way. Well there are certainly other ways to loose the weight and drop the pounds more quickly. Trust me, and no you do not have to starve or become balimic or anything like that. I am 28 and I have 2 kids, I gained so much weight both times I had my kids, girl I was almost 200lbs. I am now 125lbs and I have been able to keep it off for the past 4 years. What I did was see a doctor where I live who is a weight loss specialist. He gave me some diet pills that help to control my hunger, and B12 injections. I have been doing this on and off for the past 4 years to maintain my weight. I also started taking fiber pills to help my digestive system and vitamins on a daily basis. The numer one thing is that you have to learn how to cut you calories dramatically and start choosing the right foods, when you eat. Also exercising is the also the key. I have an eliptical machine at home and I jump on it faithfully on a daily basis. Also I eat a small little something during my break at work and spend my lunch time walking around my hospital building. You will only not loose weight if you are taking in to many calories on a daily basis. This worked for me but every one is different. I know that this is not the most healthy way to loose the weight but hey it works and that is all that really mattered to me. I was not going to be 200lbs. I hope this helps to answer you question. If you want to know the name of the diet pills I take let me know that way you can look them up for yourself and decide weather or not that is something you would want to do.
And if you are flabby and work that muscle group, I'm assuming you will lose the fat and gain the muscle, regardless of what the scale says.
Muscle and fat do not weigh the same. If you lose the fat and gain muscle, then chances are you will weigh more. Although, I'm not sure how long it takes to gain muscle as compared to losing fat. Just my reasoning on it...
I have been working out and dieting for two months now and only lost 3 pounds.
What's the deal? Is there anything I can do to speed up this process?
You stated that you do not care about your weight. Your questions should have been how can I be more healthier, not how can I speed up the process on dropping ponds.
